Increment and Decrement

Increment

Increment operators are used to increase the value of a variable by 1.

Pre-increment operator: ++variable.

The pre-increment operator increments the value of the variable before it is used:

dart

main

copy

              
12345

            
void main() {
  int counter = 0;
  // Increases the value of `counter` by 1
  print(++counter); // 1
}

Post-increment operator: variable++.

The post-increment operator increments the value of the variable after it is used:

dart

main

copy

              
123456

            
void main() {
  int counter = 0;
  // Increases the value of `counter` by 1
  print(counter++); // 0
  print(counter); // 1
}

Decrement

Decrement operators are used to decrease the value of a variable by 1.

Pre-decrement operator: --variable:

dart

main

copy

              
12345

            
void main() {
  int counter = 10;
  // Decrease the value of `counter` by 1
  print(--counter); // 9
}

Post-decrement operator: variable--.

The post-decrement operator decrements the value of the variable after it is used:

dart

main

copy

              
123456

            
void main() {
  int counter = 10;
  // Decrease the value of `counter` by 1
  print(counter--); // 10
  print(counter); // 9
}

Increment and decrement operators are often used in loops.

This approach maintains the same functionality while reducing the amount of code we need to write.

i ++ is it ?

i ++ is it ?
